Instructions
Cook udon noodles according to package instructions. Reserve 2 tablespoons of noodle water before draining.

Add the drained noodles to the sauce and toss until fully coated.
Serve hot, topped with spring onions, sesame seeds, and your choice of optional toppings.

Sauce will look thin but thickens once noodles are added.
Adjust gochujang for heat preference.
